A detached period cottage of traditional vernacular appearance. The garden contains an old stone ruin on its upper boundary and attached to the property is a two storey agricultural barn, also in traditional style.
As its name suggests, the cottage was formerly an inn, with records dating back to the 18th century. In the Victorian era the original cottage was extended, linking the house to the barn. The inn became a family home in the late 1930's and was extensively refurbished by the present owners in the early 1990's.
